Very seldom do I prefer discussion of political things. But for some reason I really have questions about the candidates. I am Republican, and will probably vote that way. But I do check out what everyone has to say when they are speaking from their personal thoughts, and not from what everyone wants to hear. Sometimes you get a glimmer, without the hype. So in the case of Obama and what he has written in his books. Does this man have a one sided view of Americans? What's your opinion?
Pay close attention to the last
comment!! Below are a few lines from Obama's books; his words:
>From Dreams of My Father: 'I ceased to advertise
my mother's race at the age of 12 or 13, when I
began to suspect that by doing so I was ingratiating
myself to whites.'
From :Dreams of My Father 'I found a solace in
nursing a pervasive sense of grievance and animosity
against my mothers race.'
>From Dreams of My Father: 'There was something
about him that made me wary, a little too sure of
himself, maybe. And white.'
>From Dreams of My Father: ; 'It remained necessary to prove which side you
were on, to show your loyalty to the black masses, to strike out and name
names.'
>From Dreams of My Father: 'I never emulate white
men and brown men whose fates didn't speak to my own. It was into my
father's image, the black man, son of Africa , that I'd packed all the
attributes I sought in myself , the attributes of Martin and Malcolm, DuBois
and Mandela.'
>From Audacity of Hope: 'I will stand with the Muslims should the political
winds shift in an ugly direction.'
